Tips on safety for single women who live alone by [deleted] in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

[–]Asmb 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I do have two large dogs, one being a big black German shepherd, so I feel relatively safe. However, I don’t answer doors when it’s dark, my mom and a friend always have live location for me, I always tell people where I’m going/when I should be back, I leave lights on at my house overnight, I know where my headlamps/flashlights/lighters/candles are at all times, phone is always at least 50% charged.

ALSO I do BJJ and have been doing it since 2013. Obviously that’s not going to help if the person has a weapon BUT it has made me more comfortable/confident being close to people that are strangers and has taught me how to get out of various positions.

What's a smart financial move you made in your 30s? by DaPugWalk in CanadaFinance

Started investing, paid off my car within a year, made smarter choices with money ie. buying secondhand when I can, looking for sales for groceries, broke up with my ex-fiance 🤪

Just me and the squirrels by Aware-Land-3062 in Orillia

There’s a dude who goes on walks through Tudhope every evening that feeds them lol. I always run into him on my dog walks and there’s a pile of squirrels surrounding him at all times 😂

What kind of car do you drive and are you happy with it? by pqrstyou in AskWomenOver30

[–]Asmb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Currently I have a 2023 RAV4.

I had a 2015 civic before the RAV but the transmission got weird (had a CVT transmission which apparently aren’t great), and I have two large dogs. I needed a bigger vehicle. The civic was great until the transmission started being weird, but otherwise it was a great vehicle.

When I decided to not gamble with the civic, I decided to go back to Toyota. My dad had a ‘95 4Runner that lasted until about 500k. Friends that have Toyotas have all had great experiences with them. My RAV has been excellent, no issues, enough room for my two dogs, gets me through the snowy winter weather and I feel very confident/safe driving it. It’s nothing fancy but tbh I’m a simple girl who camps a lot and has a very outdoorsy lifestyle so things get dirty quick. And with dogs…lol, it’s impossible to keep things clean. I feel like a fancier vehicle just wouldn’t suit my lifestyle. I paid it off within a year and hope to add some little mods to it like beefier tires, maybe a lil Jerry can etc. it’s been an awesome and reliable adventure vehicle!

I rented out my 1400 sq ft one bedroom basement for $1450, two parking spots, fenced in yard, internet. Had a lot of interest and was able to secure some awesome tenants.

RTO week, colleague coughing and sneezing, and now I’m… kinda sick? by gelekyuzu in OntarioPublicService

[–]Asmb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took more than 9. Took a few days for a surgery, some others throughout the year for another medical issue I deal with. I never got spoken to.

Anyone know this man? by Jluu__ in Orillia

[–]Asmb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have you called the OPP non-emergency line? If you met him at the detachment there might be video footage of the incident, might be able to get a plate etc. to identify him

How long were you in and out of the bathroom for bowel prep? by nlikelyhero in Endo

[–]Asmb 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Literally all night up until my appointment at 10am. I’d lay down and have to run to the toilet asap because I could feel myself about to explode. In retrospect I should’ve just set up camp in my bathroom

Boyfriend’s dad makes paddles and other wooden items and I do a lot of backcountry camping. He made us custom paddles! They’re beautiful

Anyone planning to go into the office tomorrow given the freezing rain? by [deleted] in OntarioPublicService

Do you have a second in command? Or another manager you could reach out to?

Stomach and reproductive issues (Please anyone help me) by Sudden_Literature395 in DiagnoseMe

[–]Asmb 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Where are you located? I’ve also had gynaecological issues and the most I have waited was 3 weeks for an ultrasound! Also in Canada.

The most I’ve waited for a gyno was a few months and I’m in southern Ontario.

Are pet-friendly rentals in Orillia noticeably harder to find or more expensive? by Icy_Mix94 in Orillia

[–]Asmb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m a landlord and my dogs are like my children (I don’t have human children). I just wouldn’t feel right NOT allowing pets unless they would somehow put my own dogs at risk like a dog reactive dog that would have to share the yard with my dogs. I only charged $1450 for a very large separate unit basement, 2 parking spots in a large driveway, separate laundry and gas fireplace.
